Was there one? I've only played the beta, which was pretty much the complete game so..

I've tried the patch (not final version) which includes the Skyline and RS4.. Can't say I'm really impressed. They took a long time and they only included 2 additional cars, which aren't even that special.

I got it here:

http://files-upload.com/358652/TestDriv ... A.exe.html

Somebody found it and posted it on a forum.. When you've installed the patch, copy the .exe file from the Program Files folder on your DVD to your game folder.

Hmm, so the patch only gives you 2 cars.

Any idea whether it fixes any graphical issues? :|

My stupid game still won't work. And I'm not going to risk downloading some crazy unofficial patch to make things worse. I can't even get to the main screen anymore.

I installed th patch, but only to see the two new cars. They aren't all that great, but it's better than getting nothing. I haven't noticed any problems or anything, but I didn't play long enough to find out.

You probably didn't have any bug-related problems before the patch though, right? Because if not, then you shouldn't be able to notice the patch because it was supposed to be mainly fixing those issues.

Well I purchased Carbon for the Wii, so there's a significantly lower chance of getting a bug on that, though there were a few minor ones that caused me to restart some Challenge Series events.

My game doesn't flat out not work. I can see the ads/intro sequences of the game just fine but once I skip them or wait until they finish, the game freezes at the dark screen shown before the "Loading" page.

Nope both are tuned to level 3. the Z is at 400 Bhp and the R34 GTR is at um :-k 395 I think. Both cars are basically equal. I just think the R34 should have been bit more powerful.

I like it. I was just hoping it had a little more power. What do you think of the audi?

boring compared to the skyline, my favorite at the moment is still the maranello .... 669 hp in a class c car is insane especially when it humiliates the likes of a ascari,gallardo,vette,viper, and some others

I like that TVR Sagaris. I is a class C but faster than the Ferrari F430 which is a B.

What do you guys think is the best car in the game and Does and house have more than 10 slots in a garage?

I think 10 is the max number of slots for a house. And IMO, the best cars in the game are the Enzo Ferrari and Ferrari 575M Maranello. Both extremely good handlers with great top speeds and accelerations. Shelby Cobra Daytona Coupe is also up there. For a Class G car, it has amazing performance stats and it only takes a bit of practice to be able to drive it okay (it spins easily).

My Favorite car in the game right now is the McLaren F1. Its not a easy car to drive though. I also love the Z for just cruising. BTW the Enzo and the Maranello have the same engine sounds :? .

The best car? From what I've seen, Chrysler ME 4-12, from what I've got, Caddy XLR-V (I only rented this overnight, I'm not very far through the game).

Speaking of skyline... I rented the game for my new ps2... and I have to say ya'll really made it sound better than it was... It would suck if it wasn't for the skyline... but now it rocks because of it! :P

It's a pretty good game, but it would be better if they lived up to their word on including more than just cars and houses...

I'd like at least some minor modifications... and why the heck is there only ONE Nissan shop??? I have to drive half way across the island to get parts for my skyline... then drive back to the GT club... :?

Dude, I just drove the Zonda C128 Roadster... it's freakin amazing! :shock:

The cops are on you 24/7, too.

And it costs 10 K for a bloody paint job on my XLR-V.
